I'm new to PostgreSQL and after a week of going through the documentation
and looking at the database types i want to know if there is an Integer type
on
64 bits. Something like long long integer type. I found Int8 wich is
supposed
to be an integer on 8 bytes but it looks like a double precision to me.
I tried inserting this in an int8 integer: 9223372036854775807 and failed.
Since
it is my first contact with this rdbms i think i'm looking at the wrong
field type,
yet again i find no other 18 digits integer (64 bit integer is 19 digits
wide) to hold
a full longlonginteger (i also tried only 18 digits without any success).
Any hint as of where to look for would be very apreciated.
TIA
